How the visit works
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can typically work room by room or zone by zone. On site, it takes several days for an air-to-water system with a new cylinder, less for an air-to-air system. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Egerton easier.
- We talk through your home, your current heating and what you want from a heat pump.
- We survey the home room by room for heat loss, and check the emitters, hot water and outdoor unit position.
- The price comes back fixed and in writing, with the grant and VAT shown line by line.
- The outdoor unit, the indoor equipment and the controls are installed and connected.
- Commissioning, MCS certification and a handover of the controls finish the job.
Before we arrive
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area

Air source heat pumps in Egerton
We begin with a room-by-room heat loss survey. It shows how much heat each room needs on a cold day so the system is sized to match. Guesswork leads to systems that are too big or too small. The work covers homes heated by oil, LPG or gas, air-to-water heat pumps and hot water cylinders, and the jobs we see most are working out where a cylinder could go and deciding on the outdoor unit position.
Older and listed homes in villages like Egerton need extra care, and permitted development does not cover listed buildings, so we check consent first.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

FAQs for Egerton
Is Egerton within the area you cover?
Yes. Egerton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can I get the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant in Egerton?
Egerton is in England, where the Boiler Upgrade Scheme runs. The grant is £7,500 for an air source (air-to-water) heat pump and £2,500 for an air-to-air system that replaces the existing fossil-fuel heating. The installer applies, and we’re MCS certified.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Egerton and across Kent. Let us know who the records should go to.
How much does an air source heat pump cost?
For air-to-water, the price is £8,000–£16,000 (0% VAT on homes) before any grant. The Boiler Upgrade Scheme offers £7,500 to eligible homes in England and Wales, and we confirm eligibility before you commit.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always look before we price, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. A fixed-price quote follows.
Will my radiators work with a heat pump?
The heat loss survey answers that, room by room. Rooms where the radiator is big enough stay as they are, and any that need upsizing are set out in the quote.

What else we do in Egerton
Safe owner checks
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Air source heat pumps around Egerton
The 2021 Census found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Detached and semi-detached houses usually have room for the outdoor unit and a cylinder. Central Egerton is inside a conservation area. Church of St James, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 35 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Egerton’s centre. For a heat pump, permitted development doesn’t apply within the grounds of a listed building, and in a conservation area the outdoor unit cannot go on a wall or roof facing a road, so we check with the local planning authority (normally Ashford council) where necessary.
Period properties close to Church of St James can suit a heat pump, though insulation and any heritage protection are checked first. Sizing comes from the heat each room loses on a cold day, not from the size of the old boiler.
